it's definitely not about doctor frankenstein, but it IS about a man who did something horrible, this song is about the paranoia that guilt brings, he is ready and he is waiting for the village to attack him, he expects it even, he's constantly thinking about his sins, and he is waiting for the village to retaliate, even if nobody knows what he did, wich seems to be the case here "waiting all winter" implies that.
